How I did it
It made me
HAPPY!!! 
How I did it: Losing weight takes discipline. It's not easy, but it is simple. It sounds a bit cliche, but the truth is...it really comes down to eating less and exercising more.

I’m finally doing this!
I basically set aside Friday as my “cheat day”...now when I’m craving some sugary snack, I tell myself I’ll have it on Friday.
Throughout the week, I might crave something different everyday…but come Friday, I only end up eating one of those things so that has made a huge difference in the amount of sugar I am consuming!
I am pretty much not eating any sugar during the rest of the week other than natural sugars in fruits and veggies.
It took awhile, but I finally started tackling this goal! Woot Woot!!

I have now paid off the third loan. I can’t believe it. I thought I would never get through these things!!!
This last one is going to take me awhile, but I am ahead on my payments for the first time ever.
I used to feel like I was going to drown in all this debt; now it finally feels manageable. What a relief.
Praise Jesus!!
